Crash when starting an audio video call with a gtalk account.
Last modified: 2009-06-22 15:44:27 UTC
On my Fedora 11 (recently upgraded from version 10) when I try to start an audio/video call on a gtalk account, Empathy crashes. I haven't tried with other account. This is the log ("Il device «/dev/video0» non esiste." means "device «/dev/video0» doesn't exist."): Distribution: Fedora release 11 (Leonidas) Gnome Release: 2.26.1 2009-04-29 (Red Hat, Inc) BugBuddy Version: 2.26.0 System: Linux 2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586 #1 SMP Wed May 27 17:14:37 EDT 2009 i686 X Vendor: The X.Org Foundation X Vendor Release: 10601901 Selinux: No Accessibility: Disabled GTK+ Theme: Glossy Icon Theme: gnome GTK+ Modules: canberra-gtk-module, pk-gtk-module, gnomebreakpad Memory status: size: 0 vsize: 0 resident: 0 share: 0 rss: 0 rss_rlim: 0 CPU usage: start_time: 0 rtime: 0 utime: 0 stime: 0 cutime:0 cstime: 0 timeout: 0 it_real_value: 0 frequency: 0 ----------- .xsession-errors --------------------- ** Message: Element error: Il device «/dev/video0» non esiste. -- v4l_calls.c(168): gst_v4l_open (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/EmpathyGstVideoSrc:empathygstvideosrc0/GstGConfVideoSrc:gconfvideosrc0/Gst ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: GetSessionHandlers replied: ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: - session /org/freedesktop/Telepathy/Connection/gabble/jabber/c_2ecerbo_40gmail_2ecom_2fTelepathy/MediaChannel2 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: type rtp ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: adding session handler /org/freedesktop/Telepathy/Connection/gabble/jabber/c_2ecerbo_40gmail_2ecom_2fTelepathy/MediaChannel2, type rtp ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: calling MediaSessionHandler::Ready ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: New stream, stream_id=1, media_type=0, direction=3 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: stream 1 0x91ad808 (audio) get_all_properties_cb: Adding STUN server 209.85.137.126:19302 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: stream 1 0x91ad808 (audio) get_all_properties_cb: Adding relay (udp) 209.85.137.126:19295 v1luNbqZBLaaRGw8:4SzLb2BNdXKQOkac 1 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: stream 1 0x91ad808 (audio) get_all_properties_cb: Adding relay (tcp) 209.85.137.126:19294 v1luNbqZBLaaRGw8:4SzLb2BNdXKQOkac 1 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: stream 1 0x91ad808 (audio) get_all_properties_cb: Adding relay (tls) 209.85.137.126:443 v1luNbqZBLaaRGw8:4SzLb2BNdXKQOkac 1 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: stream 1 0x91ad808 (audio) get_all_properties_cb: Adding relay (udp) 209.85.137.126:19295 tWk882KDcHo8qGud:eiRHJdCQyUEPmflz 2 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: stream 1 0x91ad808 (audio) get_all_properties_cb: Adding relay (tcp) 209.85.137.126:19294 tWk882KDcHo8qGud:eiRHJdCQyUEPmflz 2 ** (empathy:3254): DEBUG: stream 1 0x91ad808 (audio) get_all_properties_cb: Adding relay (tls) 209.85.137.126:443 tWk882KDcHo8qGud:eiRHJdCQyUEPmflz 2 --------------------------------------------------
Could you paste the output of "gconftool-2 --get /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/videosrc" please? Any chance you could try to reproduce this crash with 2.27.3 ?
The output of "gconftool-2 --get /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/videosrc" is: v4lsrc I don't know how to upgrade gnome to 2.27.3 on my Fedora 11.
There is some problem with Fedora 11 not shipping gst-plugins-bad and the package from rpmfusion being broken and causing empathy to crash when attempting to make call. If you are using that package it's probably the same bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=507009
Yes, I'm using Fedora 11 + rpmfusion
Then I'm afraid you will have to wait for the package to be updated or compile gst-plugins-bad by hand. Closing this as NOTGNOME since we can't really do something from here.
